SELF-WINDING WATCH.
The annexed engraving represents a device for winding a watch by means of the motion of the wearer's body in walking, which has been patented by A. R. Von Loehr, of Vienna, and described in the Horological Journal.
It will be observed that the mechanism is in principle the same as that which constitutes the pedometer. The inventor is aware that the motion of a weighted lever has been used before for winding a watch, but he claims to have overcome the objections existing in former arrangements.
